Fine instruments  have  always been a collectors  obsession and I can not fault  anyone who   has  created  a hobby  or profession  out  of a passion  for vintage  equipment.    When   I   punch  out the time card  for the last time  and join that  great band in the sky I hope my  beautiful wife  will find an expert  in appraisal and guitar sales  who can get her  top dollar for my personal collection of instruments.   I have been able  to help many families realize  the true value  of  the instruments and amplifiers  their spouses  have collected  over  the years.

For my service  i ask 40% commission  which you will find is pretty standard in the industry regardless  of the expertise  of the estate  specialist.  What I bring to the table  is a  knowledge  of fine instruments , both new and used,  and an effective  online  and in store marketing presence.    My Reverb  online store  has international  reach and exposure,  gives me  a safe, secure and  insured  shipping platform, guarantees  that transactions are fair and  filters  out the non-serious  buyers.

My  Brick and  Morter Store  allows  musicians  hands on  experience with the instrument and for many  buyers the prefered way to  acquire the instrument they desire.  I have people  travel as far as from Denver  just to see an instrument  first hand.

If your  instrument needs new strings , setup, or repair before sale  I take care of all of that.   I acquire  cases for  instruments that lack a case as this is a requirement  for  safe shipping.

I can play  and demonstrate  most instruments.    I have experience with  banjos, mandolins, basses, electric   guitars, acoustic  guitars, pedel steels, lap steels, and ukuleles.    I also had experience and do repair  of amplifiers, PA equipment,  speakers,  microphones, mixers,  effects boxes,  recording equipment, and  other more obscure electronica.

I will personally  come to your home and catalog and assess your collection.  provide a spreadsheet of   market value.  You will receive  payment  promptly   upon complete  of transactions  on my end.
